AMEVCNTR0<n>: Activity Monitors Event Counter Registers 0, n = 0 - 3

Purpose

Provides access to the architected activity monitor event counters.

Configuration

AArch32 System register AMEVCNTR0<n> bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register AMEVCNTR0<n>_EL0[63:0].

AArch32 System register AMEVCNTR0<n> bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to External register AMU.AMEVCNTR0<n>[63:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_AMUv1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to AMEVCNTR0<n> are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

AMEVCNTR0<n> is a 64-bit register.

ACNT, bits [63:0]

Architected activity monitor event counter n.

Value of architected activity monitor event counter n, where n is the number of this register and is a number from 0 to 3.

If FEAT_AMUv1p1 is implemented, HCR_EL2.AMVOFFEN is 1, SCR_EL3.AMVOFFEN is 1, the Effective value of HCR_EL2.{E2H, TGE} is not {1, 1}, and EL2 is using AArch64 and is implemented in the current Security state, access to these registers at EL0 or EL1 return (PCount<63:0> - AMEVCNTVOFF0<n>_EL2<63:0>).

PCount is the physical count returned when AMEVCNTR0<n> is read from EL2 or EL3.

If the counter is enabled, writes to this register have UNPREDICTABLE results.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing AMEVCNTR0<n>

If <n> is greater than or equal to the number of architected activity monitor event counters, reads and writes of AMEVCNTR0<n> are UNDEFINED.

Note

AMCGCR.CG0NC identifies the number of architected activity monitor event counters.

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
